BORUSSIA DORTMUND have spoken out about their plans to retain as many of their current stars as possible but have admitted that certain players could still leave the club.

Arsenal and Manchester United have been heavily linked with move for several Dortmund first-teamers including Ilkay Gundogan, Marco Reus, Neven Subotic and Mats Hummels.

But the German club have revealed they are under no pressure to sell and are not counting on receiving any funds from transfers before the summer.

Robert Lewandowski has already announced he will be leaving at the end of the season on a free transfer and Dortmund hope he may be the only player to leave.

However, the club admit that Gundogan's future is also still up in the air with a new contract yet to be agreed.

Dortmund boss Hans-Joachim Watzke is optimistic that Reus, Subotic and Hummels will still be around next season, but cannot yet say the same of the Turkish midfielder, who could be in line for a £25m to Arsenal or United.

Only in the case of Ilkay Gundogan, we do not yet know how it will turn out.

Watzke said:"It is our absolute desire that besides Robert Lewandowski no other regular player leaves the club.

"Only in the case of Ilkay Gundogan, we do not yet know how it will turn out. We would love him to extend."

He added: "It is quite possible that we will receive no transfer income [in the summer].

"Even if that is the case, we have accumulated reserves in recent years.
